Can't listen to music AND play Halo 4

Does anyone know how to turn down the in-game sounds during multiplayer matchmaking?

I can play music from my hard drive and turn it up max on the music player, but I can’t turn the in-game sounds down.

So the louder I have my music, the louder the explosions and the overly-enthusiastic announcer can be heard.

Can anyone help?

Go to the Xbox Guide and then go to media. Then move down to where the play button is and go to the very right to the speaker symbol. Click the speaker symbol and turn it all the way up or how ever much you want.

I have already done that. What I’m saying is that even if I turn it up to maximum the in-game sound is still too loud and can be heard over the music.

I need to turn the in-game sound down. Not the music up.

I’m pretty sure that’s a problem you’ll have to just deal with. I’d suggest a different game.

Get a speaker for your iPod and put it near you while you’re playing. Turn the volume down on your TV.
